How to find whether RayBan's are genuine or not

Hey everyone
For sometime now, i was curious how to find whether the Rayban sunglasses under observation are genuine or not ! I searched the whole of Internet for it, but it all went in vain. It must be in the deep web where the answer lies.
But my blog still has some Google visibility. Plus i found the answer. Hoping that this makes it through to the Google listings, here it comes.

Identifying whether the pair of Rayban's you have is terribly simple. You just have to do some careful observation.

1) You'll always find a RayBan logo on the glasses and on the frame. They mean that the glasses are genuine,though this doesn't ensure that it is a genuine one, but look furthur only if this is there.

2) Stand in a room with some artificial polarised light source(such as a regular fluoroscent tube). Now take the sunglasses in your hand and cover the rear side of the lenses with your hands(while trying to avoid touching the glass surface,scratches might occur if touched roughly). Now look at the fluoroscent source in the lens,while moving it slightly. In case you find light scattering slightly at places, it simply means that the given sunglasses are duplicate ones, and not genuine.

i hope it does help out some of those who need some help in recognising whether the RayBan glasses they saw were genuine or not. What do you think about it, comments are welcomed !
